We have had an excellent week at this barn. It’s beautiful and very well equipped. The location is perfect with walking distance to a couple of shops, pub, takeaway and the beach. We visited lots of gorgeous places from this location. Lovely walks for the dogs. The only downside for us was there is not an enclosed area for the dogs outside, this meant that evert time they went out we had to put leads on them and it was restrictive for them when we were at the barn. Everything else was perfect

The barn was every bit as good as the photos and only a few minutes drive away from Fairbourne which offered several shops, takeaways and eateries. Great walks for dogs and I’m sure the beach is excellent in Summer. Sadly, the weather was very wet & windy when we were there, not that Mollie our dog seemed to mind. We would certainly consider going again but perhaps hope for better weather!

Hendoll barn is a beautiful and spacious place to stay. Surrounding area stunning. Only short 10min walk to the beach where you can enjoy amazing sunsets. Beautiful coastline with lots to see and do nearby. Host easy to contact and helpful. Would love to visit again

This property is just great.. The quality of Hendoll has been thoughtfully planned throughout the cottage. The location is great for day trips and the 15-20 minute walk to the beach is wonderful. We met many people to talk with along the way. It is quiet and the patio is a sun trap. A walk out the door with my dog took us up to the old slate quarry with a stunning lagoon and views of the beach and Fairbourne. We were content and relaxed.

An amazing property that provided a home from home base for exploring the local area

Hendoll Barn is by far, the best cottage we have stayed at.. Lovingly restored, from the moment you walk in the door you are wowed by the cottage. It has a lovely homely feel and provided ample space for our group - 4 adults and 2 dogs. The location is perfect. Within the Snowdonia National Park you are surrounded by nature, providing stunning walks on your doorstep. Furthermore you are only a 15 minute stroll away from the quaint seaside town on Fairbourne. We cannot recommend this cottage enough and will definitely be back!

The cottage was amazing, really nicely done and much bigger than we were expecting! The local village was nice enough but we caught it out of season so the narrow gauge railway was closed but there are a couple of general stores and the fish and chip shop was really nice! Barmouth was worth a visit, lovely mix of shops and cafes etc and just the other side of the estuary. We got out to see Harlech castle and Porthmadog heritage railway which was another really nice day. Overall we had a great holiday and hope to return one day to see some of the stuff the two kids were a bit too little for!

Mrs Tinsley

Hendoll Barn is a lovely property in a great location.. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing few days. Lots of dog walking on the beach and surrounding areas. Blue Lake was walking distance and great to see. We will definitely return.

My husband and I needed to ‘get away from it all’ and Hendoll Barn at Friog, Fairbourne certainly didn’t disappoint.. The barn is beautiful, well equipped and comfortable. The area is very peaceful and we certainly felt refreshed returning home. Would definitely return when we need to get away from it all again

The barn is absolutely the best place I have ever stayed, the pictures don't do it justice.. It is very tranquil & it was a very relaxing break for the 3 of us there. It was nice to sit out in the enclosed courtyard listening to the nearby stream & the trees. The garden has a lot more flora & fauna than the website pictures show. Rooms & facilities were very comfortable & to a very high standard. The upside down living wasn't a problem to us, though you may have to tip toe around if you have differing sleeping patterns. It was nice that the doors in the bedroom could actually be opened onto the courtyard, so we made use of the patio furniture for morning coffee. The other adult with us enjoyed watching various World cup games on the comfy sofas & found the WiFi more than adequate for browsing. We also ventured out & about. I wish I'd known there was a trekking centre 10 minutes away. We visited Fairbourne beach ( very quiet ) & the Town of Barmouth ( twice ) . Barmouth has a beautiful beach, with a stunning mountain backdrop. Also visited Harlech Castle. We ventured a little further afield & went to Llandudno, about an hour & a half drive. Husband & Son went up to the blue lake behind us, a steep walk but they were impressed. My only niggles would be no pizza tray amongst the very well stocked kitchen ( very minor niggle ) & the fact that I wish I could afford this for 3 weeks in high season, to make the most of the area. Will certainly re-book the Barn & would also consider a shorter break for my Husband & me in one of the smaller cottages. Would love to visit this site in the Autumn.

We can not fault the house or it’s cleanliness and hate giving it any sort of poor review.. The problem is the location, although the litt hamlet it sits in is lovely, the surroundings of Fairbourne are reminiscent of Jaywick on Channel 4! If you are looking for a clean, friendly home, with a view to using it as a base, then it’s great.

Hendon Barn was exactly as advertised.. It is an amazing Barn which is very well appointed and was perfect base for our Holiday in Wales. It was made even more apealing because it is in walking distance of a beach. Definately would like to go back
